4.Installing VirtualBox guest additions
To share a folder from host machine with the Oracle Linux guest, the VirtualBox Guest Additions is needed to be installed in the guest.
Navigate to VirtualBox menu: Virtual box menu -> Devices -> Insert Guest Additions CD image
# mkdir /media/cdrom
# mount /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom
# yum install bzip2
# yum install kernel-uek-devel-`uname -r`
# export KERN_DIR=/usr/src/kernels/`uname -r`
# /media/cdrom/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run
# usermod -aG vboxsf oracle
# reboot
5.Post-installation of Oracle Linux
-
Disable Firewall
# systemctl status firewalld
# systemctl disable firewalld
# systemctl stop firewalld
# systemctl status firewalld
-
Install E-Business Suite Pre-Install RPM
Edit /etc/yum.repos.d/public-yum-ol7.repo, Change the field ‘enabled=0’ to ‘enabled=1’ for the repositories[ol7_addons].
# yum install oracle-ebs-server-R12-preinstall
Set password for user oracle:
# passwd oracle
-
Verifying network settings
Verify that the /etc/hosts file is formatted as follows:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.1.19 ebs.local ebs
Verify that the /etc/sysconfig/network file is formatted as follows:
#HOSTNAME=[node_name].[domain_name]
HOSTNAME=ebs.local
-
Verifying oraInst.loc
# vi /etc/oraInst.loc
inventory_loc=/u01/oracle/oraInventory
inst_group=oinstall
-
Creating folders
# mkdir /u01/oracle
# chown oracle.oinstall /u01/oracle
# su – oracle
$ mkdir -p /u01/oracle/oraInventory
$ mkdir -p /u01/oracle/VIS
6.Build Stage Area
Make a shared folder between host and guest VM, assume the folder including the downloaded files on Oracle Linux is: /media/sf_ebs/ebs12.2.5
$ cd /media/sf_ebs/StageR122/
$ unzip ‘/media/sf_ebs/ebs12.2.5/V100052-01*.zip’
$ cd startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz/bin
$ buildStage.sh
The stage area folder is: /media/sf_ebs/StageR122
7.Install ebs 12.2.5
$ cd /media/sf_ebs/StageR122/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz
$ ./rapidwiz
Cleanup and run rapidwiz again in case of failure:
rm -rf /tmp/OraInstall*
rm -rf /u01/oracle/oraInventory
rm -rf /u01/oracle/VIS/*
8.Start & stop scripts
$ vi ~/start_ebs.sh
#!/bin/bash
##
## Database Tier
#
#Set env
. /u01/oracle/VIS/12.1.0/VIS_ebs.env
#
#Start database
sqlplus / as sysdba <<EOF
startup
exit
EOF
#
#Start Listener
lsnrctl start VIS
##
## Application Tier
cd /u01/oracle/VIS/fs1/inst/apps/VIS_ebs/admin/scripts/
./adstrtal.sh apps/apps <<EOF
oracle123
EOF
$ vi ~/stop_ebs.sh
#!/bin/bash
##
## Application Tier
cd /u01/oracle/VIS/fs1/inst/apps/VIS_ebs/admin/scripts/
./adstpall.sh apps/apps <<EOF
oracle123
EOF
##
## Database Tier
#Set env
. /u01/oracle/VIS/12.1.0/VIS_ebs.env
#
#Stop database
sqlplus / as sysdba <<EOF
shutdown immediate
exit
EOF
#
#Stop Listener
lsnrctl stop VIS
$ chmod +x ~/st*_ebs.sh
